Bio Organics

Encompasses organic farming and then raises the bar, prioritizing building soil health as a way to fight climate change. A holistic system, regenerative organic sees the well-being of earth, humans and animals as interconnected. High standards for animal and worker welfare are critical.

More Nutritious Food

Evidence suggests what common sense has always told us: that fruits, vegetables, nuts, and grains regeneratively grown in rich, organic soil hold onto more nutrients. Eating a tomato grown with these practices, for example, can deliver more cancer-fighting flavonoids than one raised conventionally.

A Climate We Can Handle

Regenerative organic systems are rich in trees, perennials and living, microbe-rich soil. Trees and perennials (such as certain cover crops) excel at drawing down carbon dioxide, a major greenhouse gas causing the climate crisis. They drip it through their roots into the soil, where microbes ingest the carbon and keep it in the ground.

Compost

Waste from the farm gets converted into compost, which acts as a natural fertilizer and mulch—helping soil retain moisture and suppressing weeds.

Restored Topsoil

If we keep farming conventionally, the world’s topsoil, which produces nearly all our food, will disappear within 60 years. Regenerative organic farming creates thriving populations of microbes, which break down organic matter (dead plants) into topsoil. Also, systems like agroforests and perennial plants have well-developed roots that keep topsoil from eroding.

Soil Health

Agricultural practices must build soils by increasing soil organic matter, the diversity and number of soil microbes and overall fertility. These methods draw on thousands of years of traditional organic farming practices.
